The cost of the two projects is estimated at $170m.

Implementation of the projects comes within a series of development initiatives undertaken by Morocco.

The first project involves development of pastures and organising movement in desert and semi-desert pastures in Sous-Massa Draa and Guelmim-Es Semara regions.

It aims to improve the pastoral environment and upgrade living and educational conditions for the people of the region. The second project is part of a national programme to expand irrigation to improve living conditions for the people of the region and promote and develop their organisational and occupational capacities.
